March 2008 Update

Bob has just finished his last round of midterms and is relieved to have it over with. He worked really hard thus far and his grades show :) It's hard to imagine how he does it:

- full time school & group work
- apt. managing 25 tenants
- McCain internship 2-3 days per week.... Yes, he just started today!

All that and still he has time to blog about his favorite show ever, LOST! ;-) He is a VERY determined man and is loved for all of his strengths.

As for me, I just recently took a full time job offer working at the university (GWU) where Bob goes to school. I will be an executive aide to the associate vice president in fundraising for the law school. I am looking forward to it, as the people there are WONDERFUL and a great opportunity to advance quickly!!! I start tomorrow :)

It's been such a blessing bc my job will pay 47% of Bob's school tuition (bc his spouse is an employee of the school) and he and I will be able to see each other much more often than we do now (since he and I will be on campus grounds at least 9 hours/day).

I also have the opportunity to go back to school and have 99% of school paid for. Wonderful opportunities are brewing here for us in D.C. and we have great faith that more will open up in time.

We've met and hung out with quite a few great people while here. There seems to be a lot of newlyweds in Bob's class so it's been fun getting to know new couples and just spending quality time as husband and wife.

We are SO EXCITED about this month, as it is quite a full month for us. We have friends & family flying in every weekend to visit us for a few days and see the DC life. It'll be SO GREAT to see familiar faces and show them around the city! Can't wait Franzy and Cassidy's :)

Well, that sums it up... Just starting to get into the groove of things here and enjoying the different lifestyle and change.
